Khởi nghĩa Lý Bí (542 - 544) qua thư tịch cổ Trung Quốc

Abstract

During Vietnam’s resistance against Northern domination, the uprising led by Ly Bi against the rule of the Liang dynasty achieved the longest-lasting independence and autonomy, lasting nearly 60 years (544 - 602). From this victory, Ly Bi became the first in history to proclaim himself Emperor as “Nam Việt Đế” [Nam Viet Emperor] and also the first to establish the era name “Thiên Đức”. In 544, Ly Bi overthrew the Liang dynasty’s colonial administration and founded the Van Xuan state.Despite the many historical changes since then, this brilliant achievement remains indelible. Given its immense significance, numerous scholars have explored various aspects of the uprising, yielding valuable findings. Building upon these existing studies and conferences, and incorporating additional materials from ancient Chinese records, this article seeks to further elucidate certain aspects, including the historical context, the uprising’s leadership, the participating forces, and relevant geographical locations.
